The Department is deeply committed to doing all of its work in a way that protects Americans’ freedom of speech, civil rights, civil liberties, and privacy. In fact, the Disinformation Governance Board is an internal working group that was established with the explicit goal of ensuring these protections are appropriately incorporated across DHS’s disinformation-related work and that rigorous safeguards are in place. The working group also seeks to coordinate the Department’s engagements on this subject with other federal agencies and a diverse range of external stakeholders. The working group does not have any operational authority or capability.

Let me see if I can translate.
The Department is committed to the appearance of upholding Americans’ freedom of speech, civil rights, civil liberties, and privacy. In fact, the DGB is an internal working group that was established with the explicit goal of maintaining that appearance, and coordinating with other federal agencies to ensure the continuation of a narrative preferred by a diverse range of external and internal stakeholders. The working group does not have any authority to “operate”, but they may coordinate with other federal agencies who will “operate” on their own authority guided by recommendations of the DGB.
How’d I do?
